INSURANCE INSIGHTS

❓What is a frequency limitation?

A frequency limitation, sometimes called a type of annual limit, is a rule in health, dental, or vision insurance that restricts how often a specific service is covered—usually once within a set time period, like once per calendar year or once every 12 months.

🦷 Example: If your dental plan covers one cleaning every 6 months, that’s a frequency limitation.

Some plans require you to wait the full time period before receiving the service again, while others allow you to receive it once within that time frame, regardless of the exact date.

🚦 Example: One plan may require exactly 365 days between annual checkups, while another allows one per calendar year (e.g., Jan–Dec), even if appointments are just months apart.

🧠 June is Alzheimer's & Brain Health Awareness Month

Alzheimer’s affects more than 7 million Americans, and Medicare gives you some good tools to support it.

✅ Your yearly Medicare "Wellness" visit includes a no-cost cognitive check-in to screen for early signs of memory or cognitive issues. ✅ If your provider notices anything, Medicare also covers a separate, more in-depth cognitive care planning visit. ✅ Caregivers are welcome to attend these visits, ask questions, and help build a care plan together.

There is currently no cure for Alzheimer’s, but early diagnosis can open the door to better treatment and support options. So don’t put it off. 💛 This June, consider scheduling your wellness visit and starting an open conversation with your loved ones about brain health.

INSURANCE INSIGHTS

❓What is a Premium?

A premium is the monthly payment you make to Medicare, an insurance company, or a health plan to keep your health or prescription drug coverage active.

Think of it like a subscription—just like Netflix, but for your healthcare!

Even if you don’t use your benefits every month, keeping up with your premium ensures your coverage is there when you do need it.

INSURANCE INSIGHTS

❓What is a Deductible?

A deductible is the amount you pay out of pocket for health care or prescriptions before your Medicare plan or other insurance plan starts to pay its share.

For example: If your plan has a $500 deductible, you’ll need to cover $500 in approved medical costs first—then your coverage kicks in. After that $500 deductible is met, you may share costs with your insurance provider via copayments.

Understanding your deductible helps you plan better and avoid surprises! Need help reviewing your insurance plan or benefits? Let’s chat. 📞

Spring is the perfect time to enjoy ingredients that only show up for a short window—and green garlic is one of them. 🌿 If you’ve never cooked with it before, think of it as a milder, slightly sweeter version of regular garlic that adds incredible depth without overpowering a dish.

This Green Garlic & Potato Soup is simple, comforting, and perfect for those in-between spring days when you want something warm but not too heavy.

Ingredients:

2–3 stalks green garlic (chopped)
1 leek (cleaned and sliced)
3–4 Yukon gold potatoes (peeled and diced)
4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
2 tbsp olive oil or butter
Salt & pepper to taste
Optional: fresh herbs (parsley or chives)

Directions:

Heat olive oil or butter in a pot over medium heat.
Add green garlic and leek; sauté until soft and fragrant.
Add potatoes and broth; bring to a boil, then simmer 15–20 minutes until tender.
Blend until smooth (or leave slightly chunky if preferred).
Season with salt, pepper, and fresh herbs.

Serve with crusty bread and a drizzle of olive oil for a simple, seasonal meal. 🍲

✨ Rethinking Summer Travel: Go Beyond the Usual

This summer, skip the crowded resorts and predictable itineraries. Choose experiences that blend adventure, learning, and relaxation, the kind of trips that leave you with real stories and a fresh perspective.

Here are 3 unique ideas to inspire something different:

🌊 Live at sea — Sail on a Research Vessel

Step aboard the Statsraad Lehmkuhl, a historic tall ship where you don’t just observe, you participate. Help sail the ship, live alongside a rotating crew of travelers and scientists, and contribute to real ocean research as you cross parts of the globe. It’s part adventure, part education, and completely unforgettable.

🏎️ Stay, play, and fully unplug — Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch

Just outside Las Vegas, this motorsports resort lets you stay on-site and immerse yourself in a completely different world. Spend your days learning high-performance driving, then unwind by the lake or at the clubhouse. It’s a unique blend of adrenaline, skill-building, and relaxation, all in one place.

🌋 Step into something bigger — Etna + Stromboli Volcano Study Tour

Join a multi-day expedition through Sicily and the Aeolian Islands led by expert volcanologists. Hike active volcanoes, watch eruptions under the stars, and experience the raw power of the earth up close. This isn’t just sightseeing, it’s a full immersive adventure.

INSURANCE INSIGHTS

❓What is a Copayment?

A copayment (or copay) is a fixed dollar amount you pay for a covered service—after you've met your deductible. It's your share of the cost when you visit the doctor, fill a prescription, or get medical care.

👉 Example: If your plan says you have a $20 copay for a doctor visit, that’s what you pay at the appointment—no surprises.

Copays are one way insurance helps split costs, so you’re not stuck with the full bill. Want help understanding how your plan handles copays, deductibles, and more? We’re here to help!
